A structurally damped device for attenuating the vibrations between two structural members and having means for connecting said device to said structural members comprising: means defining a first primary load path designed to take the basic load between said structural elements; and means defining a second structural load path in parallel with said primary load path; said means for defining a primary load path is a spring comprising a bolt having end bosses integral therewith and wherein said means for defining a secondary load path comprises sleeves of material one attached to each of the end bosses and placed in overlapping relationship with viscoelastic damping material located between the sleeves and loaded in shear.
